Happy New Year's Runaways! Cody and team, I watch/listen to you all religiously. It really warmed my heart when you mentioned me as one of the reasons y'all continue to attend armories. I'm also encouraged to play more as well this year!! -M

I can only hope that CYB Riptide never becomes a thing outside of locals.

I submitted the zen v victor vod and played another victor again. This time, I learnt from the pain and didn’t snap block with my fridge. Managed to resolve a cosmic and closed it out in the end just grinding the victor down😅

Thank you for cutting ties with certain questionable individuals and keeping your values and integrity.

Pineapple and Jalepeno pizza is A-Tier

We need Blitz to be cheaper and easier for new players, being so expensive wont serve its purpose of casual games

Boltyn card idea: 1 cost 3 power yellow light warrior attack action card with go again, text as additional cost charge a light card. If you did draw a card and create a quicken token. What could go wrong?

I agree with Dan, major placements should be on of the major deciding factor in POY. The majors should account for at least half of the total points available for the year

Let's get this pod over 1k subscribers. Like and share!

LL is looking… boring. I get the philosophy of not banning cards and I agree. But acknowledge that starvo is a problem. Restricting element cards just results in collateral damage to other decks that could be viable. I guess a possible solution could be to errata starvo so his ability is dominate OR go again. Getting hit in the face with a disruptive attack and then winter wail with a break point and a FB is just messed up

honestly best episode of the pod yet. the ending bit about when game plans conflict with game theory and or value theory was pure gold. amazing question and very well answered. i look forward to this pod every week

Gz on results everyone!

Grats on results guys. Cody - was your round 10 Viserai opponent - great game and very appreciated

Lucas was upset about the Verdance card but I feel like this and others were meant for Rosetta but they couldn’t balance it in time. This is how I imagined Verdance from the start. Gain life every turn, ping enemy, and then hit with a damage card. The way the deck is played now I am not sure what he was referring to because I haven’t reviewed deck lists. Probably the gain 30 life from pots and such and then the card that deals damage equal to health gained. I love the card but there should be more. Dang! Now they are going after Ira. I am building Ira to get away from Victor for better matchups. Not sure who will be viable but I am testing decks on Talishar to see who would be good to build. Any thoughts on decks not about to LL?

Please! More Noah in the podcast! He brings something so unique and fresh, the chemistry of this week's people energy was absolutely amazing. Keep up the good work!

There is a world where haunted set stomps enigma

There sheer amount of times Likas says the word "like" is bonkers... It hurts my brain. haha Good info as usual though.

jarl is fine into viserai you just have to build him properly

I refuse to play any Rune blades after viserai

I will be very sad to see Viserai go. I have played him since I started playing flesh and blood. He's been the only hero. I would consider a Mane that I've ever played, but I'll admit it's time for the arknight to rest in his tomb. He can go out on a Victory now after Rosetta being legitimately powerful once again

i dont know when is summer on the united states. Can you guys just say like the dates?

I’d love to watch Dan motivating the ratios of a deck using the hypergeometric calculator

Let's never have tiktok Lucas make an appearance again... please

Noah is a funny guy, saying that there are mind games on when to block with a head piece

I agree, you have to be loose and having fun to play your best. And it makes the whole vibe at events great for everyone. Thanks Lucas!

Scowling came out in Dusk till Dawn Noah, you're fired

Get Dalton on podcast please

lucas looks different this week, maybe he’s just tired from the event idk

This channel/podcast has become my favorite fab content to consume by far. Another great pod, please keep it up

To the discussion about losing at around minute 46; I’m completely fine losing if I learn something or if my opponent is fun to play against but as much as I try to keep my cool, it’s never fun to lose when you draw multiple non-functional hands and your opponent has the nuts or even worse when your opponent is unpleasant even while winning. I’ve had opponents talk crap about my plays, while beating me and I’ve had opponents get visibly angry that I drew a 2nd Bloodrush even when they’re way ahead. I guess my point is that being a good opponent in both victory and defeat is important and is something that will grow the game which is good for all of us.

This version of Zen is so much more enjoyable than bonds

I remember Lillie times, I didn't go but remember playing events back then and people were catching people for very small things like "You made the runechants from Revel first so now you can't make the ones from Viserai!"

You had me at viserai

I really wish that traverse was "When this defends together with a blue card, do the thing" making it so it trades a blue not just goes up a card would be a large step in reigning in it's power

nice ep. everyone was in a very jovial mood and i smiled many times listening to it.

Riptide oscilio vynseytte are really under discussed in the podcast

Vynnset is the most fun deck I've ever played, also as a bonus since you have a start of turn trigger it's a lot easier to learn to remember tunic when plying other decks too lol

Poggysoggy

Poggywoggy

We got the receipts 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 LETS GO CODY LET EM KNOW

Blaze is so good in Blitz - def needs to be considered when talking about best deks in blitz

People weren't mad about your CYB take, they were mad about the way you complained for 40 minutes straight.

good stuff thanks

Still curious why Cody thinks CYB enigma winning worlds somehow justifies his comments in previous videos. I’ll concede that many people underestimated the power level of CYB and the problems it causes with tournament timing. But this was only part of, if at all, Cody’s resentment of CYB. The main cause of negativity towards Cody in previous videos is stemmed from the entitled takes of “CYB decks randomly ending people’s tournaments” and that CYB removes deck building decision making, replacing it with “to be lucky or not lucky”. I guess the deck winning worlds and the subsequent banning makes it easier for Cody to retroactively change the focus of his arguments?

Can we get Daniel off the pod? Typical aggro player mindset and comments - Zen / Fai / 10x Go Again for tons of damage = good Iyslander = not good. It's not even entertaining hearing this for the XXth time.

Cody with the consistent bad takes

Cody "i told you so" williams LOL

Yeah so BD if there are no poppers is Prism with Rainbow Angelic Wrath, no auras in the deck all gas.

you aren't ready for the 60 vynnsets that are gonna show up

Dan the voice of reason this ep 😂
